:::::*I think they tend to have "Links" in their titles, so you can probably pick up on that.[[User:Kolano|Kolano]] 05:15, 22 August 2011 (CEST)

:*Regarding "Platforms" in the infobox, generally we're only interested in platforms supported by Dolphin (i.e. GameCube, Wii, Virtual Console systems). I'd actually prefer to omit this line, as it's confusing for titles on multiple platforms which have multiple pages on the Wiki (though it would be good to interlink the platform page pairs where they exist.

::*The script is purging any platform that is not supported by Dolphin, and then wikifying the ones that remain.  If we were to agree on a standard for how pages should be named when they are available on more than one platform, it would be easy to add a <nowiki>'This page is about the [[Gamecube]] version of Super Tonka Trucks.  You may also be interested in [[Super Tonka Trucks (Wii)]].'</nowiki> to the top of the page, a la Wikipedia style.  Might also make sense to make disambiguation pages, and link to those.  Your thoughts?

:::*We more or less had decided to forgo the Platforms parameter previously, due to the confusion it could cause. A consistent naming format does exist, in the cases where a title is supported on both GameCube and Wii, two pages exist with different postfixes " (GC)" and " (Wii)". Unfortunately, since I'm unaware of any means to do text parsing within Wiki logic, I don't think a Wiki logic approach allows for resolution. The script can do the text parsing, but I'm still unsure it's worth bothering over.[[User:Kolano|Kolano]] 02:59, 22 August 2011 (CEST)

:::*Disambiguation pages for these would make sense, at least one exists for [[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]], but I don't think any of the other instances are covered.[[User:Kolano|Kolano]] 02:59, 22 August 2011 (CEST)
